ACC Mavericks: Fees

Thursday, January 312013-2014 ACC Mavericks Fee Summary

Club, Team Fees and Expenses

Division
One soccer is the highest level of competitive play available with the biggest
time commitment for players and families.
The competitive program requires more games, more practices, more travel
and more field time. Because of the higher level of activity and use of
resources, the annual fees to join a competitive program is usually higher than
most recreational teams and programs. The ACC Mavericks welcome all soccer players
who have the skills, commitment and determination to play at the competitive
level regardless of ability to pay. To
facilitate this philosophy, the ACC Mavericks offer a partial scholarship for
the annual fees for families who meet the financial criteria. The ACC Mavericks strongly encourage each team
to also offer scholarships for eligible players.
